Steel Guitar is amazing!

Hi
Today I bought ToneStack. I have a iConnectivity iConnectAudio4+ (I know, long name) MIDI/Audio interface, or iCA4+ for short.
They work GREAT together! I maxed out all the settings on both my iPad Air and iPhone 5S. Not a hint of a problem.
The iCA4+ is set to 48k, 24-bit. No problem.

Have been using JamUp Pro, but the issues have been too many with this interface...it's a joke. Today, I sat and jammed for 4 hours straight after I bought ToneStack. Haven't done that in a long time.

Then I looked around and watched the Steel Guitar video, and bought it right away and the full bundle. I was kinda hoping there would be a MIDI out from the app, but I can't seem to find it. Is a MIDI out in the works? Of course, BT MIDI would be nice, but not a must. But programming pitch bends and stuff in a piano roll is a PITA, to say the least.
The app is and sounds AMAZING. Oh, one more thing...there is no resonator available? For those Knopfler and blues/grass moments lol.

Thank you!
Chris

Hi Chris!

MIDI out isn't feasible because of the legato notes used on Steel Guitar. There is not currently a resonator available, but we hope to add one in the future.

Cheers!

Ok Jessie, thank you very much for the reply!
Crap, now I have to practice instead...

I don't know if this is interesting to you...and I decided to let more than a few mistakes slide, lol.
But here is a quick video I made today.

I'm not interested in MIDI Out, but definitely MIDI-In to control which strings are plucked or hit, then I can control the pitch bend/mute myself. I'd like to get Fugue Machine or Xynthesizer playing a simple arpeggio and then I can move the steel or mute strings with my fingers. Right now it doesn't seem like I have enough fingers and skill to use this app properly.

Where do you go to get the steel guitar ?

It's its own app in the App Store.

So the Steel Guitar is not part of Motherload?
